1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

backgroundFreezing of gait (FOG) is a sensitive problem, which is caused by motor control deficits and requires greater attention during postural transitions such as turning in people with Parkinson's disease (PD). However, the turning characteristics have not yet been extensively investigated to distinguish between people with PD with and without FOG (freezers and non-freezers) based on full-body kinematic analysis during the turning task. The objectives of this study were to identify the machine learning model that best classifies people with PD and freezers and reveal the associations between clinical characteristics and turning features based on feature selection through stepwise regression.

methodsThe study recruited 77 people with PD (31 freezers and 46 non-freezers) and 34 age-matched older adults. The 360° turning task was performed at the preferred speed for the inner step of the more affected limb. All experiments on the people with PD were performed in the "Off" state of medication. The full-body kinematic features during the turning task were extracted using the three-dimensional motion capture system. These features were selected via stepwise regression.

resultsIn feature selection through stepwise regression, five and six features were identified to distinguish between people with PD and controls and between freezers and non-freezers (PD and FOG classification problem), respectively. The machine learning model accuracies revealed that the random forest (RF) model had 98.1% accuracy when using all turning features and 98.0% accuracy when using the five features selected for PD classification. In addition, RF and logistic regression showed accuracies of 79.4% when using all turning features and 72.9% when using the six selected features for FOG classification.

conclusionWe suggest that our study leads to understanding of the turning characteristics of people with PD and freezers during the 360° turning task for the inner step of the more affected limb and may help improve the objective classification and clinical assessment by disease progression using turning features.
